Answer:
In my opinion is They are just as curious about the fishermen as the fishermen are about them. 
Explanation:
The texts says they're rescued then captivated but the sailors haven't done anything to them other than rescuing them from the island. 
There is nothing relevant about suspicious creatures in the text. 
Nowhere in the provided text there is said that the sailors are gonna do smth bad to the rescued ones. Nor there is a dialog between the sailors about the captives. 
Whilst on line 16 till end the sailors and the rescued ppl glance at each other when they think the other one is not looking. Giving the idea of curiosity from both sides. (that's all I could see from the provided text. Hope it helps)

Answer:
8/17
Explanation:
The cos of angle x is eight seventeenth and the triangle was dilated to be two times as big as the original:
Cos x = 8/17
Let the original triangle be ∆ABC
Dilated triangle be ∆DEF
Find attached the diagram.
All sides of the triangle are scaled by the same factor when we apply a dilation. 
DE = 2 × AB
EF = 2 × BC 
DF = 2 × AC
∠A = ∠D
∠B = ∠E
∠C = ∠F
Dilation also known as scaling does not affect angle measure. The angle measures remain the same.
Therefore, The value of the cos of x for the dilated triangle = 8/17
